What we changed in iDharma, recorded month by month, with the newest first. 2026 is laid out in full; earlier years are folded under Earlier updates. Changes to our policies and legal documents are recorded separately in the changelog.
01 September 2026 updates
Release notes, a new footer and simpler agent-audit pricing
Estate re-scans and second opinions
Two new ways to work with us: a re-scan of an estate we have already audited, and a second opinion on an audit carried out elsewhere. The framework pages also explain why an audit against a named framework costs more.
Simpler agent-audit pricing
Agent audits are now priced by access level (black-box, read-only or proxy), which replaces the earlier nine-tier price list.
Prices in search results
Audit prices are now published in the structured data of the pages that sell them, so search engines can show them. Example success stories were also removed from the site.
A redesigned footer
The footer now has four columns of links (Explore, Company, Legal and Get in touch), with a strip below for guides, standards, verification, industries and tools, plus the iBrothers Group family of products.

02 August 2026 updates
Agent audits, a two-step request and new frameworks
Industry, lender and Insights pages on the new design
The fintech lenders page, the industry pages and Insights moved onto the same design as the AI Audit page.

The EU AI Act page now covers risk tiers, roles, Annex III, general-purpose AI and the steps to compliance
A two-step audit request

Two ways to buy an audit
Choose an audit by depth, from a quick scan to a full audit, or choose one by the framework you need to meet.
Pricing and a real sample report on the homepage
The homepage now lists audit prices and links to a real sample report.
